Nirav J. Modi posted thisIn my conversations with clients and industry-leaders, the new CMS ACCESS program has been a recurring topic of interest. For MSK conditions (and others), the ACCESS program creates a lane for digital interventions to serve low-acuity patients and keeps patients connected to care in between in-person episodes. Most importantly, the ACCESS program ties a significant portion of reimbursement to outcomes, versus visits or volume, fundamentally requiring a different orientation around deliving-value. It is great to see these new hybrid care models take flight. For Limber Health, these new models expand our opportunity to support our partners and patients through continued innovation. I am excited to participate in an upcoming webinar to share more details about the MSK ACCESS program with Christian Pean M.D., M.S., Dr. Marc Gruner, Dana Prommel Strauss and Benjamin Schwartz, MD, MBA. Join to learn more about the program details as well as how healthcare organizations can participate in the eco-system this model can enable. Link to register is in the comments. #MSKAccess #HealthcareInnovation #CMSAccess #digitalhealth

Nirav J. Modi shared thisStories like Laura's are why I left a successful career in telecommunications to dedicate myself to something I believed in deeply: the transformation of healthcare. I saw then, and still see now, that technology can give patients agency. That it can remove ambiguity, reduce information asymmetery, improve provider workflows, and ultimately drive better outcomes while reducing unnecessary care and cost. From co-founding Carium, to launching innovating employer-sponsored health plans at Cevona, to four years at Limber Health, my focus always has been on building platforms and services that wrap patients in longitudinal care and use technology to support and guide them through it. As I settle into my new role here within the Limber Division at Net Health, I'm reminded of my North Star. Thank you to our partners at Sheltering Arms Institute, to Cristin Beazley, Matt Wilks, Bryan Gilreath and Jenny Lankford, M.S. IMC, for fully embracing what becomes possible when we put our hearts and minds to work together. We're proud to support Laura and many other patients like her in their recovery. #patientoutcomes #physicaltherapy #remotetherapeuticmonitoring #RTM #digitalhealth #MSKHealthNirav J. Modi shared thisWhen Laura needed to have her knee replaced, she chose Sheltering Arms Institute based on strong recommendations from people she trusted. Between physical therapy sessions with Josh and C.J., Laura stays committed to strengthening her knee at home. Our partnership with Limber Health helps us support patients beyond the clinic through one-on-one check-ins with a care navigator to guided exercise videos. “The videos are wonderful—if someone shows me in real time, I catch on so much faster,” she shared. Watch how Laura uses our app to access her home exercise program and how it’s supporting her rehab journey. #kneereplacement #kneereplacementsurgery #kneereplacementrecovery #kneereplacementrehab #kneereplacementrehabilitation #physicalrehabilitation #physicalrehab #physicaltherapy #homeexerciseprogram #homeexercises #reinventingrehabilitation #reinventingrehab #rehabilitativecare #digitalhealth #innovation #innovativetechnology #innovativehealthcare

Nirav J. Modi shared thisI'm excited about what is to come next and all that is possible with Limber Health's acquisition by Net Health. While the last week was a whirlwind, I've had some time to reflect as well. My foray and interest in healthcare began with co-founding Carium on the premise that we could simplify and demystify health journeys for patients, bring patient-generated data into the clinic, and extend care outside the clinic workflow into the patient's life-flow. Fast forward to a few years after that, I was introduced to Michael Gruner and Dr. Marc Gruner. They shared their thesis that we could better serve MSK populations by complementing in-clinic care with at-home support and monitoring. Their vision aligned perfectly with my passion to transform care-models while improving patient experiences and outcomes. It has been a privilege building Limber Health with Michael and Marc. There are few in the industry with their passion and conviction to drive change. Having left no stone unturned, they have raised the bar for all of us in demonstrating their commitment to transform MSK care. From leading our operations to scale the business and clinical functions, to cultivating relationships and product experiences for our clients that are best-in-class, It has been an incredibly rewarding journey for me personally and professionally. I am proud of what we have accomplished. I can't thank the broader Limber Team enough. Their passion is unmatched. They inspire me daily with their indefatigable attitudes and dedication to our clients and the patients we serve. We wouldn't be here without each of your efforts and contributions. As this next chapter unfolds, I look forward to working alongside the Net Health team, all of whom have demonstrated a culture and spirit of kindness and collaboration through the whole process. There's much more to do and we will do it together at Net Health + Limber. #Startups #PhysicalTherapy #MSK #DigitalHealth #LimberHealth #pinksocks #HCLDR #BeTheChangeNirav J. Modi shared thisThrilled to share that Limber Health has been acquired by Net Health! I’m deeply proud of what we have built at Limber. In the crowded digital MSK market, we have scaled a brand new care model, combining in-clinic MSK care with our best-in-class digital technology and services, enabling patients with comprehensive care to best succeed with their recovery in-clinic and at-home. At Limber, we chose the hard but necessary path to maximize impact in healthcare: partnering directly with clinics, which are navigating unprecedented clinician burnout and staffing challenges. Our model focuses on partnering closely with providers in the clinic and driving real change management — not just adding tools, but reshaping workflows and reimagining ways of delivering physical therapy. The result has been remarkable improvements in patient outcomes. Because of the work of the incredible team at Limber, we have now served millions of patients and our products are now also used daily by 3,000+ clinics nationwide. Thank you to Ron Books and the team at Net Health. From our earliest conversations, it was clear that you bring not only vision, but care and thoughtfulness to every decision. Thank you to Patrick Rooney, Christy Totin, Tannus Quatre PT, MBA, and Kevin Keenahan for your collaboration and support throughout this process. I greatly appreciate your approach to our partnership and am looking forward to the future of Net Health + Limber Health. I am forever grateful to the Limber Health team, our investors, and our customers that have helped us reach this milestone. Thank you to my brother and co-founder, Dr. Marc Gruner, for your vision and relentless passion for improving MSK care. Thank you to Nirav J. Modi - we could not have achieved this milestone without your leadership and commitment to excellence in everything you do. And special shout-outs to: Ramon Castro, Trista Corker, Rick Gawenda, PT, Michelle Gawenda, Lloyd Mandell, Blake Patton, Jason Kuo, Emir Sandhu, MD, Ryan Thomas, Joseph Giles, Fiona Hotung, Alissa Fox, Tracy Jakob, Sejal Gajarawala, DPT, MS, MBA, Steven Liska, PT, DPT, ATC, CSCS, Robyn Keene, Evan Kuhl, Kelsey Knoppe, Alex Christie, Julia Goodwin, Micah Cowsik-Herstand, Ben Pugh, Robert Longyear, Jim Dulaney, Bryn Bonner, PT, DPT, MS, CSCS, Annie K.

Nirav J. Modi shared thisThis is the promise of tech-enabled, team-based, redesigned care models: better outcomes, better experiences for patients and providers, and reduced total cost of care. Such an awesome journey. Fantastic work Carium and Kevin Lobdell. #patientexperience #digitalhealth #virtualcare #healthcare #innovation #remotepatientmonitoring #caretransformationNirav J. Modi shared thisSupporting patients with well-designed, easy-to-use tools amplifies their efforts to heal. Mark Reid recovered from heart surgery at home much faster than most patients using a one-stop app to reach his nurse, Shannon, and review with her a shared map of his daily progress. Mark was able to accelerate his exercise as he felt up to it while remaining safe thanks to Shannon's real-time oversight of his progress (see his steps in the attached graph—they also monitored other key metrics). With encouragement and peace of mind thanks to Shannon, Mark was able to scale a neighborhood hill that had "felt like Mount Kilimanjaro" just a few weeks prior. Join us TOMORROW (Wednesday) at 11AM Pacific, 2PM Eastern with Mark Reid and Shannon Crotwell for the Carium "Health In Real Life" interactive conversation on using virtual care to support patients pre- and post surgery. This a chance to speak first-hand with a patient and provider on the cutting edge of digital health. Please come with questions!

Modi liked thisStaying sharp where it matters most. Especially at your front desk — the heartbeat of your clinic. Don’t wait until something breaks to fix it. Break your processes down, evaluate them, and rebuild them stronger. CONSISTENCY. CLARITY. ACCOUNTABILITY. Shoutout to Jerry Durham for lending his expertise and helping us level up where it counts. 👏

Nirav J. Modi liked thisNirav J. Modi liked thisCMS has made its priorities unmistakably clear: a shift from sick care to prevention and wellness. Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz has named it as a defining focus, and CMMI’s 2025 strategy backs it up with three pillars: • Promote evidence‑based prevention • Empower people to achieve their health goals • Drive choice and competition What’s striking is how perfectly these priorities align with what physical therapists and occupational therapists already do every day. And yet, there’s a structural gap we rarely see. Advanced primary care has two well‑established leg: 1. Medical care (physicians and advanced practice providers) 2. Behavioral health (now deeply integrated thanks to years of policy and payment innovation) But the third leg is missing. Movement, mobility, and functional health. This includes frontline musculoskeletal care, fall prevention, ADL performance, and the practical work of staying independent as we age. These are core drivers of cost, quality, and quality of life. And they sit squarely in the wheelhouse of PTs and OTs. Behavioral health shows us the roadmap. Their integration happened through sustained, clinically grounded, economically supported engagement with CMS, resulting in new G‑codes, higher RVUs, interprofessional consultation billing, and inclusion in CMMI models. Therapy can follow the same path. The window is open. The precedent is there. The need is undeniable. The public’s need for greater, affordable access to the right provider where they already often present first is unmistakable. Our scopes of practice already enable it. It’s time for rehabilitation therapists to take their rightful place in advanced primary care as a foundational pillar of prevention, independence, and healthy aging. It's time to be part of the solution. Our professions owe it to the populations we serve. #advancedprimarycare #teambasedcare #acos #physicaltherapy #occupationaltherapy *Ideas and opinions are my own.*

Nirav J. Modi liked thisNirav J. Modi liked thisToday marks the end of an incredible 10-year chapter. I'm stepping away from my role at PT Solutions, and I want to take a moment to say thank you. To the leadership team — thank you for trusting me to help build something meaningful across 600+ locations. The lessons I learned scaling innovation inside a PE-backed healthcare organization will stay with me for the rest of my career. To the teams I worked alongside — you reminded me every day that healthcare operations isn't about systems and processes. It's about the people those systems serve. To the patients and clinicians who were at the center of everything we built — you were always the point. I'm incredibly excited about what's next. I'll be sharing more in the coming weeks, but I'll say this: it sits at the intersection of patient care, technology, and a problem I've been close to my entire life. More soon. For now — gratitude.

Traffic Engineering Algorithms Using MPLS for Service Differentiation
IEEE Communications, 2000
See publicationThis paper proposes an approach to Traffic Engineering that uses differentiated services (diffserv) and multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) to provide quantitative QoS guarantees over an IP network. An algorithm that determines QoS-constrained routes is proposed and a framework that uses such an algorithm is outlined. This framework removes the responsibility of QoS guarantees from the core nodes, thereby reducing their complexity.

My team has helped health systems with 300+ Digital Health implementations. The 5 things those with the highest patient adoption do differently: 1️⃣ Patients are given access to the tool across multiple channels, well beyond just the patient portal. Yes, it should have a launch point from the patient portal (e.g. Epic MyChart) - but patients should still be able to access it directly from a separate mobile app, web app, SMS, email, etc. Today, we work with health systems who tell us their patient portal has less than 50% patient adoption, or that have patients who don’t like or want to use the patient portal, etc. Through a multi-channel approach, we have some health systems getting 90%+ patient adoption of SeamlessMD. I know you love your “EHR patient portal-only” strategy, but don’t you love patient accessibility more? 2️⃣ Physicians directly promote the tool to patients. Same way that a doctor telling patients to follow a treatment plan drives adherence, it’s true for Digital Health tools too. Even if it’s just 15 seconds to say: “hey, we have this great digital care journey platform to help educate and monitor you throughout your surgery. Patients who use it feel more confident, less anxious and have better health outcomes. My team will tell you more about it” makes a HUGE difference in driving up patient adoption. 3️⃣ Obsess over the adoption metrics and driving them up Every month, every quarter they are looking at which clinical areas have high vs low adoption - and doing something about it when adoption could be better. After 12+ years of doing this, my team has so many best practices and strategies for tackling patient adoption. But sharing those insights is meaningless if the health system isn’t motivated to get better adoption. But those who deeply care about getting results? They use every trick in the book that we know, and they’re getting amazing 90%+ patient adoption. 4️⃣ Tool is standard of care: it’s opt-out (instead of opt-in) The highest performing health systems don’t make things complicated. They keep it simple for both patients and their clinical workflow by promoting and recommending the tool to everyone. The ones with the lowest adoption? They’ll look at a patient and think “they look too old to use Tech” and just assume they can’t and won’t use it. I’m telling you - we’ve had patients in their 80s and 90s use Digital Health and say they love it! Don’t judge. Make it standard of care. Let patients opt-out if they want. But stop assuming. Give patients the benefit of the doubt they can do things. 5️⃣ Keep educating and promoting the tool throughout the entire episode of care Yes you could just promote the tool when you first enroll patients. But health systems who re-promote it during an in-patient stay, and re-promote it at discharge and whenever else possible - always get higher adoption and engagement. *** What would you add?

𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 𝗚𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 Healthcare is entering a new phase of AI adoption as agentic AI moves from experimentation to real-world implementation. At HIMSS26, major technology companies demonstrated how AI agents are transforming care delivery, reducing administrative burden, and generating measurable financial impact. 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱: 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝘁𝗼 “𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲” Google Cloud showcased how Gemini-powered AI agents are helping healthcare organizations operate more efficiently. CVS Health’s Health100 subsidiary is integrating agentic AI to improve interactions across the care ecosystem. Highmark Health’s Sidekick AI assistant has grown from 1 million to more than 6 million interactions, generating about $27.9M in projected value for 2025. Through collaboration with Waystar, AI-driven workflows helped prevent more than $15B in denied claims. Google describes this shift as a move toward “agentic healthcare,” where AI anticipates needs, coordinates processes, and supports more connected care delivery. 𝗘𝗽𝗶𝗰: 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Epic is enabling health systems to build their own AI agents. Its no-code Agent Factory allows clinicians and administrators to create AI tools tailored to their workflows. Art, Epic’s clinical AI assistant, has saved thousands of physician charting hours, while Penny, a revenue-cycle agent, has reduced claim denials by more than 20%. Epic reports more than 16 million monthly uses of its inpatient and outpatient AI insights and introduced Curiosity, a predictive model trained on millions of anonymized records to forecast patient journeys. 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵: 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻 Amazon focuses on automating routine administrative tasks such as patient verification, scheduling, and documentation. Health systems report a 30% reduction in call abandonment rates and about 630 hours per week redirected from administrative work to patient support. Ambient documentation adoption has increased by 275%, reflecting the rapid acceptance of AI-assisted workflows. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 Agentic AI is moving from concept to operational infrastructure in healthcare. The impact is tangible: billions in prevented claim denials, millions in financial value created, and significant time returned to clinicians and staff. AI agents are rapidly becoming a practical solution for improving efficiency and care delivery. For a deeper analysis, subscribe to my Substack. https://lnkd.in/erhw6e6j

Big win for Craig Limoli and the Wellsheet team for locking in a partnership with Ascension - one of the largest nonprofit health systems in the country, with more than 140 hospitals and 2,600 care sites across 19 states. Ascension will now be using Wellsheet’s AI-powered software to help clinicians save time by pulling all the most important patient information into one view and streamlining workflows across care teams. Clinicians are already reporting saving up to two hours a day, which is a massive transformation when you think about how much time they spend buried in EHRs. The U.S. is staring down a projected shortage of up to 86,000 physicians by 2036, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. Between rising demand, burnout, and earlier retirements, it’s getting harder to keep clinicians practicing at the top of their game. That’s why this partnership matters. It’s a clear example of how Wellsheet’s thoughtful, AI-driven technology can strengthen the foundation of Ascension’s work by supporting the people who keep it running. Congrats to Craig and the team at Wellsheet - keep the momentum going.

Want to know what investors and hospitals think ambient AI is worth? Look no further than the meteoric rise of Abridge. Abridge has gone from a $5 million startup in 2018 to a company valued at $5.3 billion in just over six years. Its unicorn flight tells you everything you need to know about where AI is being deployed—and why. And as you might have guessed, it isn't about clinical quality. Founded in late 2018 by a former cardiologist to help reduce “doctor pajama time,” Abridge is now deeply embedded in more than 150 health systems including Mayo Clinic, UPMC, Lifepoint Health®, Kaiser Permanente, Emory University Hospital, and Yale New Haven Health - all of which are also investors in the company. What supercharged its growth? The company’s quick pivot and focus into revenue cycle management (RCM) and clinical documentation integrity (CDI). Here’s the money trail: 2018 – Founded with $5M in seed funding 2020 – Series A: $15M 2021 – Series A Extension: $12.5M 2023 – Series B: $30M from Spark, CVS, Kaiser, Mayo, SCAN, and more 2024 (Feb) – Series C: $150M; partnerships with UPMC and Yale New Haven 2025 (Feb) – Series D: $250M; valuation hits $2.75B 2025 (June) – Series E: $300M; valuation jumps to $5.3B Now spanning 55 specialties, 28 languages, and 150+ health systems Its latest product—dubbed a “contextual reasoning engine”—isn’t just AI that listens. It’s AI that creates more billable notes, tags diagnoses for better risk scores, and automates billing inputs at the point of care. I do not begrudge Abridge's success nor am I anti innovation in healthcare. What most alarms me about these figures is that they make it much less likely that there can ever be any meaningful oversight of AI in this space. AI in healthcare remains completely unregulated. At $5M, maybe lawmakers had a window to ask questions. But now that billions are on the line—billions that drive the revenue strategy of major hospitals—that window has slammed shut. That kind of money doesn’t just buy yachts, it buys access to D.C., the best lobbyists, and policy insulation that makes any serious regulatory oversight nearly impossible. As these types of AI engines becomes the backbone of hospital revenue, no one wants to be the policymaker who pulls the plug. In any other industry, a leap from $5 million to $5.3 billion would signal a breakthrough innovation or global impact. In healthcare, it just means you found a lucrative choke point in a system that no one’s really watching.

We are incredibly excited to share the news of hellocare.ai’s $47M growth funding round. LRVHealth has partnered with Labinot Bytyqi and his team along with leading investors HealthQuest Capital, Bon Secours Mercy Health, UCHealth, and OSF HealthCare to fundamentally transform “smart rooms” across the continuum of care. LRVHealth has tracked the evolving “smart room” space for many years and believe we have hit a true inflection point with the advent of emerging AI capabilities that proliferate the use cases in each setting of care. With these advancements, return on investment spans patient experience, quality, safety, and labor. Health systems recognize that patients now expect a more tech-enabled, intelligent healthcare experience—and are factoring this into their plans for facility upgrades and expansions. Use cases include: -Virtual sitting and nursing -Admission, discharge, and transfer -Observation and consultations -Fall prevention -Behavioral management -Double medication verification -Meal consumption and analysis -Vitals analysis and management -Bed and room turnover -And many more As use cases expand, there is a growing need for a comprehensive enterprise solution, that would allow for a shared infrastructure and data connectivity, to replace fragmented point solutions. While there have been vendors in the market for some time, most only address a small component of the smart room experience and not built for scaled use case applications across the continuum of care. All this combined brings about healthcare facilities of the future—smart, fully digitized, interconnected, and data-driven. This isn’t just a category we believe in—it’s one we’ve been anticipating. And we’re proud to partner with Labinot and the Hellocare.ai team to help shape what’s next. Congratulations! Read more about this news: https://lnkd.in/eh72eTdR

Is the Purdue Model helping your manufacturing outcomes, or holding us back? For 30+ years, the Purdue Enterprise Reference Architecture (PERA), better known as the Purdue Model has been the blueprint for organizing IT & OT networks. But in 2025, I’m wondering if it a framework for resilience or a straitjacket for innovation? ✅ Where it still delivers: • Clarity in complexity → helps map messy IT/OT ecosystems • Defense-in-depth → segmentation creates layered security • Accountability → clearer ownership across layers ⚠️ Where it fails us today: • Too static → walls off data flows that AI, IIoT & cloud rely on • Blind spots → can’t keep up with ransomware crossing IT & OT boundaries • Business drag → rigid silos slow innovation & agility 💡 We need to shift our thinking: Purdue as a mindset, not a rulebook • Apply Zero Trust across OT, not just segmentation • Secure the data flows, not just the perimeters • Treat IT + OT as converged, not siloed enterprises • Align architecture with business outcomes, not just compliance 👉 The biggest risk isn’t that the Purdue Model is old but rather mistaking it for a rulebook when it should be a playbook. For the practitioners in this space, do you agreed? Leave a comment below on how you utilize this framework or disagree with this approach 👇🔐 #CyberSecurity #OTSecurity #Manufacturing #DigitalTransformation #CISO #Resiliency #ConvergedOperations #IoT

It had to be said! 🎯 Epic's stranglehold on healthcare IT has stifled innovation for too long and the writing is on the wall. The consolidation myth needs to die already. We were promised efficiency and lower costs, but what we got was bloated bureaucracies that prioritize profits over patients. The data doesn't lie: smaller, agile providers consistently outperform these healthcare monopolies on both outcomes and patient satisfaction. Time for a major reset in how we think about healthcare delivery.

Google just increased our AI costs by 2.5x. They did it by sunsetting a legacy version and launching a more powerful one. While the tech is better, most healthcare organizations aren’t ready for the economic fallout The era of treating compute as a free resource is over. For years, the AI conversation in healthcare has only centered on capability, what models can do. The new conversation now includes economics, what can they do, and at what cost. Every healthcare AI strategy now has to reckon with cost vs value, and, of course, accuracy. Let's unpack it. On Cost: Complex, multi-part medical decisions are expensive to process. At 2.5x the price, deploying AI broadly is no longer a default. It's a calculated bet. On Value: AI remains one of the most powerful levers for reducing human burden in an already strained system. But value has to be demonstrated precisely, not assumed. On Accuracy: This is where most cost models break down. Every AI output still requires human verification. The real cost of accuracy isn't just the API fee — it's the API fee and the clinician's time to validate it. That compound cost adds up fast. The organizations that will lead in this next phase aren't the ones with the most AI. They're the ones who know where AI earns its place — and where it doesn't. And then keeping on top of how that shifts in this rapidly changing market. That means understanding where AI creates the highest-value , shifting toward deterministic models where precision is non-negotiable, and building cost into the conversation, as a few examples. This is the work I'm leading at Connective Health every single day — helping healthcare leaders build AI strategies that are not just innovative, but creating consistent value. The question worth asking your team this week: does your AI roadmap still hold up at 2.5x the cost?

Hyro • 11K followers
2025 was a defining year for Hyro. We raised $45M, worked with dozens of enterprise health systems, won category awards and pushed our responsible AI chat/voice agents to new heights. Below are 6 highlights we’re extremely proud of: 1) We are now partnered with 50 major health systems across the US. In 2025, we welcomed over a dozen new enterprise health systems and expanded deeply with long-standing partners across more service lines, workflows and patient journeys. 2) Raised $45M to accelerate AI agent adoption in healthcare. We raised $45M in a round led by Healthier Capital, with participation from new investors -- Define Ventures, Norwest, ServiceNow and Mercy Health -- and existing investors: Macquarie Capital and Black Opal Ventures. We’re grateful for this major vote of confidence in our mission! The new funding allows us to: - Further deploy our responsible AI agents across more major US health systems to improve patient access - Build five new engineering teams to support new workflow layers - Expand our focus to mid-market health systems and specialty clinics (orthopedics, pediatrics, etc) 3) Won 3 major awards for Hyro’s responsible AI agents. In 2025, Hyro received three major awards: - Salesforce 2025 Partner Innovation Award - CB Insights Digital Health 50 - Fierce Healthcare Innovation Award 4) Launched proactive outreach for patient access and coverage. In 2025, we expanded beyond inbound automation with: - Proactive Px™ for outbound patient communications - ARMR™ Outreach to support patients at risk of losing coverage due to regulatory changes (e.g. OBBBA) Health systems can now proactively reach patients via voice and SMS in order to close care gaps, improve access and help patients stay covered. 5) Real customer impact at scale at the Tens of Millions. Our AI agents worked this year at never-before-seen scale: - Tens of Millions of patient interactions handled successfully over voice, web/mobile chat, and SMS - Tens of Millions of staff hours saved - Tens of Millions in dollar value of appointments scheduled Every one of these numbers reflects patients who received faster care and staff who got back more time to focus on what matters. 6) Rang the NYSE bell. Very fun, and a nice prep for the future :) Last but not least, thank you to our entire team of Superhyros! Couldn’t be more proud of our team’s incredible ambition, execution, and care this year for patients. Onto 2026!

Big news as promised - KeyCare today announced $27.4M in new financing to continue scaling our virtual, Epic-based care model that ensures deep integration with health systems, clinicians, and patient records. Why do we do this? Because #telehealth shouldn’t be a transactional endpoint. It should be a connected bridge to the healthcare ecosystem. That principle has guided us from the start. Virtual access works best when it strengthens, not fragments, the broader care journey. This round reflects growing confidence that coordinated, Epic-based virtual care can expand access (while preserving quality and continuity), decrease the stress on an over-burdened office-based system, reduce costs for patients and healthcare overall, and create a path toward scalable population-based health. Thank you to our investors for believing in this approach: HealthX Ventures (Mark Bakken), 8VC (Sebastian Caliri), LRVHealth (Will Cowen), BOLD Capital Partners (Will Borthwick), WellSpan Health (Kaitlyn Torrence), Allina Health (Desmond Nation), UCM Ventures (Hannah Levine), Edge Ventures / Emplify Health (Corey Zarecki), Exact Sciences (Andy Muller), Ikigai Venture Partners (Michael Brouthers), the The 4100 Group, Inc. (Scott Lancaster, MD, MBA, Mariya Filipova, Scott McLean) and and others. And a sincere thank-you to the KeyCare team for building with intention, discipline, and care. Michael Robbins, Sulabh Agarwal, Andy Jackson, Carrie Nelson, MD, Stacy Helsher, Jennifer Timm, Cory Ogden, MD, MPH, and so many others! Looking forward to continued growth, innovation, and improving the healthcare system overall! #VirtualCare #DigitalHealth #NewFunding NOTE: In case you were wondering, the total funding of $27.4M included $20.9 in a new financing led by HealthX Ventures and $6.5M in convertible notes. 🔗 Read the Axios exclusive by Brock E.W.

Ryan, I could not agree more. The reality is patients still experience friction that leads to delays in starting therapy or abandonment all together because of how difficult it is to get access to affordable healthcare. This is the work. Designing systems that actually support the intent behind these programs --> ensuring patients get the care they need. My team inspires me with their incredible work and effort in changing this to a rapid access & affordability reality. I am so proud how we have been able to create FAST and MEANINGFUL programs for our health systems to make sure patients do not fall through the cracks. This feels extraordinary and very fulfilling to help solve for what is the most massive complicating force in healthcare: the funding of it all. Grateful for the opportunity to speak at Informa Connect #HubsEast2026 with Chris Sanders, PharmD, MHA about how we create stronger alignment so access works the way it is meant to --> in support of getting our patients care rapidly and in a way that does not create financial toxicity. Excited for the conversation and the people in the room. #PatientAccessandAffordability #PatientAccess #AccessUSA #MedicationAffordability #MedicationAccess #PharmacistImproveCare #DesigningtheFutureofPharmacy #StopFinancialToxicityinHealthcare

There’s a fundamental gap between what AI vendors are building and what health systems are actually prioritizing (clinician retention, operational efficiency, revenue capture, and speed to revenue). That was just one takeaway from a great conversation I had in June with Raihan Faroqui, MD, head of clinical partnerships at Guaranteed. More key takeaways: 🏥 Financial ROI is king. Health systems are investing in AI solutions with clear bottom-line impact, such as coding automation, billing, and denial management tools. RCM AI is red hot. Agentic AI tools that can autonomously execute tasks across the front, middle, or back offices are gaining traction. 🏥 Nice-to-haves still need reasons to have. If tools that have soft ROI (e.g., ambient AI scribes improving the clinician experience) can prove ROI through metrics like turnover reduction or boosts in productivity, they’ll have greater adoption. 🏥 In value-based care, AI’s most immediate utility is in accurate coding for risk adjustment and care gap closure. Support for properly identifying comorbidities to drive higher payments under capitated models is key. 🏥 Upcoding concerns, particularly in Medicare Advantage, will likely drive future legislative scrutiny. AI tools that can prove compliance-ready functionality will hold a competitive advantage. 🏥 Rural hospitals struggle to recruit/retain talent. Agentic AI tools (e.g., digital care coordinators, virtual assistants) offer a lifeline for keeping operations running. 🏥 Big predictions: Providers are using AI to maximize claims and risk scores. Payors are contracting their own AI to counter-verify and contain costs. This is driving a new “AI vs. AI” ecosystem. We’ll see more of this and more mergers and acquisitions or partnerships that bring AI tools together (e.g., your scribe tool and my RCM tool) to provide end-to-end solutions.

The interviewer of this episode was more impressive than the one who was interviewed but I enjoyed it! Every health system should challenge providers with real-time cost data inside a clinical, evidence-based context. “We’ve built alerts” or “made it hard to order that” is not changing a culture! Cultures change when approaches iterate and alignment models promote and support the change.

David vs. Goliath: The Hospital Inventory Edition Performing an asset inventory in a hospital often feels like stepping onto the battlefield with a stone and slingshot in hand, staring up at a giant. Large departments. Thousands of items. Countless manufacturers, models, serial numbers, and locations — all in a dynamic healthcare setting. It can be overwhelming, intimidating, and sometimes even feel impossible to tame. But here’s the truth: like David facing Goliath, success doesn’t necessarily come from brute force or speed. It comes from strategy, precision, and the courage to go “all-in” to deliver results for your customer. ✅ David had a sling and a stone. ✅ We have data, experience, and a team built to deliver value through service. The hospitals that win at understanding their asset inventory are the ones with a strategic vision, the willingness to plan, and with goals and objectives they are driven to meet. To everyone out there battling their own Goliath in healthcare asset management: keep pushing. The right approach can bring the giant down. #HealthcareSupplyChain #HospitalInventory #Leadership #MERCatWork #DavidAndGoliath #HealthcareLogistics #medicalequipment

In my work with healthcare startups, it’s easy to focus on product-market fit, regulatory pathways, and capital raises. The less obvious (and sometimes under-leveraged) lever: the alignment conversation. The essential question is: “How does what we’re doing fit with what you want to achieve?” Before we spend another round building features or planning our next hire, let’s ask: ❓ What does success look like for our user/hospital/payer partner in 12 months? ❓What will they stop doing, start doing, or measure differently because of our product? ❓How does our team align with that outcome, and what needs to shift to ensure alignment holds? Because the most sophisticated tech means nothing if it’s not built around the right conversation. #healthcare #innovation #communication https://lnkd.in/g8dRDyne
